Entertain yourself. Watch Desi Boyz.
Debutant director Rohit Dhawan tells his story in a light vein and never compromises on the fun quotient. He seemed to have learnt his craft from his father, David Dhawan, well, but never plays it over the top like him.(more)

Go in with modest expectations and perhaps you won't come out dissatisfied. Rohit Dhawan leaves no directorial imprint for a first-time filmmaker, and there's little in this movie that you haven't seen before. (more)
